I am not sure what you mean by 'column format'.
If you want them to the left eg,        $750.00
                                         250.00
                                         1230.00 - you would create a tab
                                 and click on right
If you want the points to line up  eg,   $750.00
                                          250.00
                                         1230.00 - you would create atab
                                    and click on decimal
